When the Beat Drops Out
Marlon Roudette Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

When the beat drops out
And the people gone
Will you still be there, still be there
For me child?

When the lights go out
And the morning comes
Will you still be there, still be there
For me child?

When the beat drops out

Life, happens when you're making plans
Flying high and shaking hands
A song will write you, you don't write it
I, didn't mean to fall in love
Was rhythm that created us
I was running, we collided

Baseline, I will always make time
I just wanna know that feeling's in your heart for me
Baseline, after all the great times
I just wanna know that feeling's in your heart

When the beat drops out
And the people gone
Will you still be there, still be there
For me child

When the lights go out
And the morning come
Will you still be there, still be there
For me child?

When the beat drops out
And the people gone
Will you still be there, still be there
For me child?

When the lights go out
And the morning come
Will you still be there, still be there
For me child?

When the beat drops out

With you, I found a new way to live
I see an alternative
Now we started, we can't stop it
I, I didn't mean to fall in love
Last thing I was thinking of
Was you and me but we collided

Baseline, I will always make time
I just wanna know that feeling's in your heart for me
Baseline, after all the great times
I just wanna know that feeling's in your heart

When the beat drops out
And the people gone
Will you still be there, still be there
For me child?

When the lights go out
And the morning come
Will you still be there, still be there
For me child?

When the beat drops out
And the people gone
Will you still be there, still be there
For me child? (will you still be there for me)

When the lights go out (when the lights go out)
And the morning come (morning come)
Will you still be there, still be there
For me child? (Will you still be there for me)

When the beat drops out
When the beat drops out
When the beat drops out

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Marlon Roudette's song "When the Beat Drops Out" express the fear of the singer that the love he has for someone may not be enough to keep that person by his side, once everything that had brought them together is gone. The "beat" in the song symbolizes the things that bring people together, such as shared experiences, interests, or even hardships. The chorus asks a direct question: "When the beat drops out and the people gone, will you still be there for me, child?" The singer is implying that when the shared experiences and interests that had brought them together are gone, will the person still love him? The fact that he calls the other person "child" implies that he is vulnerable and is dependent on them for emotional support.


The intense fear of losing the person he loves is expressed in the verse, "Life, happens when you're making plans, Flying high and shaking hands, A song will write you, you don't write it." The singer implies that life is unpredictable and can change at any minute. The line "A song will write you, you don't write it" suggests that sometimes experiences and events write a story that is out of our control, and we just have to live with it. The singer also admits that he did not plan on falling in love, but the rhythm of a moment led him to it. This line suggests that love is serendipitous and is something that happens to people, rather than something they can control.
